What Causes A Red, Hard And Painful Lump On The Right Buttock?

Hi,I am a science girl, but for once I can t find the answer. I ve read others peoples similar problem but I can t find an accurate and we ll accustomed answer. On my right butt cheek right by the crack and inch below the start of my crack is a very painful lump that s red, hard, and rather swollen with shiny white blood mixed fluids. I have no idea how to ease the pain, and what it really is. I can t get to the doctors for awhile. Is there home remedies? And what is this lump? It would really help.

Respected Science girl Hi
I evaluated your query thoroughly .
* Till your narration it is most probably peri-anal abscess likely, though require
confirmation by physical examination .
* Need surgical evaluation as soon as possible till that time you can
- manage to have soft stools with high fiber diet, plenty of liquids as hard
stools will increase the agony
- Sitz bath ( sitting in a tub filled with lukewarm water for 10-10 minutes
morning , evening & specially after passing stools ) help a lot
- avoid sitting on hard surface for prolong period of times
- Local application of Xylocaine (5%) jelly give soothing action
- refrain from any anal sex activities ( if involved )
- avoid smoking / alcohol if consuming
- Systemic antibiotics & anti-inflammatory agents fasten the recovery as
prescribed after in person evaluations
- avoid oily / spicy / non vegetarian stuffs
- take analgesic tablets 3 times a day after meals for pain control
Hope this helps you .
